There was a trademark awhile back from Capcom for a game called Ixion Saga. We now know that it's an online PC title in which players will form unions with other players for eight-on-eight battles, set to release in 2012. An ...

Joel Nyström, CEO of Ludosity, the team making the upcoming Zelda-like Ittle Dew, recently spoke with NintendoWorldReport as part of their "eShop Interview Extravaganza" and made an interesting comment about i...

I often browse the Steam store for new releases that could be interesting, and was excited when I read Isbarah's description as a bullet hell platformer. I love bullet hell games and have played basically everything that...

Developing a Gears of War-like cover shooter for Nintendo 3DS is unconventional, but that's just what VD-Dev did with Ironfall: Invasion. Featuring both local and online multiplayer, as well as an 11-stage campaign, the project seems fairly ambitious for the handheld, and as you'd expect, there are mixed results.
While multiplayer turned out well enough, the campaign is a mess.

Iron Front: Liberation 1944 is a hardcore military sim set in the eastern front of World War II. It's created from the Arma II engine, so fans of that series should feel right at home.
When talking about WWII shooters, it's e...

Today a handful of interesting looking mobile games were released and instead of doing a bunch of posts, I figured I'd just round them all up. Well, at least the most interesting looking ones that were in our tips box today.

Silly name aside -- and, you know, at least it's memorable -- I'm all about Iron Fisticle.
This is a twin-stick shooter inspired by the likes of Robotron, Gauntlet, and Smash TV, which are such terrific games to borrow from ...

Europeans finally got to play Double Fine's excellent mech-meets-tower defense game Iron Brigade late last year, after a long delay caused by the unfortunate trademark debacle surrounding the initial title -- Trenched -- resu...

If you happen to find yourself with nary a game to play, you may want to check out Amazon's "Microsoft 5-Game Arcade Pack" for Steam.
For the lovely price of $9.99, you'll receive: Deadlight, Insanely Twisted Shado...

Invisible, Inc. is going to be one of my obsessions this year. Enough that I am actually going to play a game while it's in Steam Early Access (PC, Mac) rather than waiting for the hard launch. Plus, it will be priced at $16 while in Early Access before bumping up to $20 at launch.

Inversion is one of those games that seem to have been around forever, quietly popping its head up out of the bushes every few months to remind us it still exists while we continue living our lives and barely so much as grunt...

A week ago, the Humble Indie Bundle 8 impressed us as one of the biggest and best collections to date, including titles such as Hotline Miami, Awesomenauts, and more. Indie game fans ravenously scooped up the bundle and trade...

The realistic-enough first-person shooter Intruder has a new developer video up detailing how voice communication works and OH MAN this game finally has textures! Everything prior to this has been an untextured white-ou...

File this under the "why in the hell did I not think of this?!" category. Intimate Control was created by Jennifer Chowdhury for her class thesis project. The aim of the game is to help bring couples together for a...

"Explore alien worlds." That's usually all it takes to get me a little bit interested. It's enough to get me to watch a Kickstarter video, and in the case of Interstellaria, I'm really glad I did. Go ahead; click the video a...

It's been in development for years but Interstellar Marines is finally taking its (hopefully) last few steps towards being fully released. The game is available on to buy on Steam's Early Access service allowing you to help f...

Stealth games often involve watching and waiting, studying behavior patterns and moving only when the time is right. Interference looks to have some of that, but mixes in a unique twist: certain areas can be treated as if th...

Them Games Studio says that their upcoming game, inSynch, falls somewhere between a rhythm game and a musical instrument. Its gameplay is simple: it has you popping up objects that roll in from the four corners of the screen...

Look, another first-person shooter! Squad-based shooter Insurgency has been available for the last nine months now through Steam Early Access, but the game is officially out of beta come January 22 for Windows and Mac. ...

When will kids learn -- you just don't mess around with time machines.
Honestly, it's like the kids of 2040 have never seen Back to the Future. At least, young Kelvin, the main character in Inspire Me, clearly hasn't: he's b...

There are things to consider when it comes to playing music in public. Are you in an open space, perhaps a park, with enough distance between you and others so that your tunes don't dance on over into unwilling ears? Are you...

The concept of infinity can be hard to grasp. Other than the Energizer Bunny, space, and Buzz Lightyear, there is not much regular exposure to the concept of something that goes on forever and ever and doesn't stop. Our puny ...

It's been a while since we've heard anything from Playdead, the developers of indie darling Limbo. Now we know that it's working on a new title called Inside.
During the Microsoft press conference this morning, some footage ...

Bundles seem to be all the rage these days. With the Humble Bundle, Groupees, and the Game Music Bundle, I'm building up a huge collection of content that I might never get around to experiencing. Since I clearly needed anoth...

Guillermo del Toro's association had me curious about inSANE, but it's not exactly like we had much to go on about the game in the first place. Sadly, we may never. Speaking to investors, THQ CEO Jason Rubin disclosed that th...

Inner City Kids, from one-person developer Jamo Games (click this for some lovely art samples), was shown off the PlayStation Blog today. The XCOM-inspired strategy game is coming to PlayStation Vita next sprin...

Injustice: Gods Among Us is finally here home consoles, and if you haven't had a chance to experience it yet, there is an iOS version available for free.
To be clear, this is not a full fighting game experience in the slighte...

Sega is experimenting with the free-to-play model right now on the 3DS in Japan, and it looks like it might yield some favorable results. They're scheduled to release their first F2P title soon with Initial D: Perfect Drift O...

Initial D: Perfect Shift, Sega's free-to-play racing game based on the anime, is coming to Japan on April 2nd. It's part racer, part card collecting adventure, as the cards will actually "drive" your car, but shifting gears c...

Originally launching on Steam in mid-July, Wales Interactive's sci-fi themed, werewolf-infested Infinity Runner is now available for purchase on the Windows Store.
Infinity Runner, an aptly named running game, is&n...

As part of my slowly-get-out-of-bed routine this morning, I glanced at my inbox and was delighted to see an email pop up on my phone about ChAIR. Could this be it? The announcement of another Shadow Complex? We've been waiti...

Apple celebrated its fifth birthday last week by giving away games and apps for free. One of those games was Infinity Blade 2, and All Things D is reporting that the Epic game saw 5.7 million new players in the past seven day...

iOS games aren't popular around these parts, I know, but I was personally quite looking forward to Infinity Blade Dungeons. I enjoy the mainstay games in the series, and the idea of a loot-nabbin' dungeon crawler in its unive...

Last year at one of Apple's keynotes Epic Games showed off Unreal Engine 3 with their flashy swordplay game Infinity Blade. This game has gone on to be a showcase title for iOS devices. Today its sequel was shown at Apple's L...

Those who missed out on picking up Infinity Blade over these past few years are in for a treat, as Epic Games and Chair Entertainment have dropped the price from $5.99 down to a very welcome "free." No strings attached. Havin...

We haven't talked about Infinite Crisis, the DC Comics-themed multiplayer online battle arena game, in a while. Truthfully, it's been fun to just look at its alternate-universe heroes and villains more than anything, what wit...

This should sound somewhat familiar: a small band of mercenaries are on a forbidding planet, confronted by a horrific alien force that swarms across the landscape. Well-armed and entrenched, the soldiers have been easily keep...

While I hesitate to give it any more attention, The War Z has changed its name and I wouldn't want any of you fine people to mistakenly play it. Not that, you know, the 20/100 Metascore wouldn't scare you off from the Steam p...

It's been a year since inFamous: Second Son's release on the PlayStation 4, and to this day, it's one of my favorite games on the platform. Sony is celebrating its one-year anniversary with a few little tidbits, like ringtone...

Sony says that the fastest-selling PlayStation Network game of all time is Sucker Punch's inFamous 2: Festival of Blood. It came out as the #1 game in the top 20 for the month, but it's also the all-time fastest seller on PSN...

It was easy to be skeptical of the PlayStation Move when it first launched, but you have to admit, the peripheral has seen a fair amount of support. Sony has listed the Move-compatible games coming out later this fall, and th...

So much for trying to stay up-to-date.
An inFAMOUS 2 video was promised to the YouTube audience, I dunno, about half a year ago. Hard to believe...that they would continue to care after that long. The part about about w...

Sucker Punch Productions has been making the rounds leading up to inFamous: Second Son's release a week from today, and speaking to GameSpot, co-founder Chris Zimmerman talked about the bizarre origins of the game that kicked...

Bar games (or pub games) can be a fun diversion when you're out and about: hanging with friends, drinking, and generally making a fool of yourselves when at a bar. The bar atmosphere and playing with friends is what makes gam...

Oh look, it's time for more Indigo Prophecy! This time around, we get racist in a bookstore (again), we play basketball by watching basketball and pressing buttons, we push a wheelchair, and we play Simon Says while cutscenes have all the fun.
Indigo Prophecy thrills us all.

In Verbis Virtus was amidst a batch of games green lit on Steam this summer. It's still being worked on, however. Developer Indomitus Games recently announced that a Mac version is in development as well. Of course, going a ...

Back in my day, when trailers and game ads showed players making real intense faces at the screen while clutching their controllers, it was because a game was TOO XTREME for a normal facial expression. Now it seems that such...

Earlier this year, indie developer Deck16 released a very simple yet challenging physics-based PC game called Impulse. Combining the neon explosion of Geometry Wars, the careful precision of Lunar Lander, and the diabolical d...

There is a vast, tumultuous ocean between good ideas and their actual application, and lost in the middle of that ocean is Impire. In fact, it may very well be stuck inside the belly of a whale.
I had high hopes for the dunge...

Before working on games like SkyDrift, Sine Mora, and Black Knight Sword, Digital Reality was best known for their excellent 4X titles. Arguably the best of their space empire strategy games, Imperium Galactica II, is now av...

Impact Winter looked cool when it showed up last year on Kickstarter, but potential backers gave it an icy reception; it only made about 22% of its initial funding goal. Any who were worried that it may not see the light of ...

Some gamers have chosen to call it "creepy" and "disgusting." Media outlets, those even belonging to the videogame press itself, have misrepresented it as "Holocaust DS" or a "Nazi torture game." The truth of the matter is th...

Ilo and Milo are two best friends who meet every day at the park for tea. One day, however, they find that either the park has been rearranged or that their memories have become jumbled. They're not sure which it is, bu...
